Dear Internet Archive Patrons,
We need your help to make sure the Internet Archive lasts forever. On November 9, we woke up to a new administration promising radical change. This is a firm reminder that the Internet Archive must also design for change. So we set a new goal: to create a copy of our collections in the Internet Archive of Canada. This will cost millions. For us, it means keeping our cultural materials safe, private and perpetually accessible. It means preparing for a Web that may face greater restrictions. It means serving patrons when government surveillance may be on the rise. The Internet Archive is a non-profit library built on trust. Reader privacy is very important to us, so we don’t accept ads. We don’t collect your personal information. But we still need to pay for servers, staff and rent. If everyone reading this gave $50, we could end our fundraiser right now. If you find us useful, please give what you can today. Thank you.

All tracks written by Fortyone Artwork by Fortyone & Fortyfour Thanks to the family and the 45's "I wish to announce that... How did a vintage jazz/blues collector get involved with Fortyone?" Well, a little more than a year ago, I was poking around on the Web, looking for unusual old sounds to download (Im especially interested in material from the 78 RPM era.). I stumbled upon the Comfort Stand site, and was delighted by Fortyones Different Mayonnaise album his choice of sampled...favoritefavoritefavoritefavorite ( 3 reviews ) Topic: cut'n'paste and love

I was in-between albums and feeling a little frisky so I decided to do some sort of something with all the Comfortstand material that had been released to date (at the time of the creation of these recordings the catalog was up to 26 albums and 6 singles). What I wound up doing (all in one night) was choosing one song, pretty much completely at random although the track length and titles influenced my decisions somewhat (I was more apt to choose the shortest tracks and track titles I liked),...

I love to make this music, which is why I made this music. Old records (for the most part children's) found in thrift stores, yard sales and flea markets were the main source of the material along with public domain drum loops, Internet WAV sites, TV shows and movies and much more. No drum machines, fancy samplers or sequencers were used on this project. Not one shred of original instrumentation, just 100% samples recorded with a basic PC microphone strategically placed up against my stereo...favoritefavoritefavoritefavoritefavorite ( 7 reviews ) Topics: Experimental, Found Sounds, Lo-Fi

Welcome to Music That's Better Than It Sounds. Honestly. This is new art from old art. 100% Samples.
